rejuvenation

In a blink of an eye, it was time to start school, and Xiao Ke took me to the No. [-] Primary School in the city, which is a key primary school in the city. According to Xiao Ke, most of the Xiao family's children in City H go to primary school here.

I sat listlessly in my navy blue school uniform, with short arms and legs, listening to the teachers teaching manipulative, a, o, e, 1+1=2, and finally I fell asleep.

The teacher was not happy, and asked me to get up to answer the questions. Although I got all the answers, I felt that it was too scary to have to go to elementary school for six years!

Xiao Ke came to pick me up at night, and the class teacher talked to him. Xiao Ke came out and asked me: "Are you not used to reading? Or did you not sleep well at night?"

I looked up at him and sincerely suggested: "Can I skip a grade?"

Xiao Ke squatted down and asked me: "Are you sure you know what the teacher taught?"

I said to him with certainty: "I want to skip a grade."

Xiao Ke took me to the principal's office, and the principal gave me a test paper. I glanced at it and said, "I want to be a third grader." Four years of study is already my limit...

The principal was a little confused: "Actually, we now know that many children's families are better off, and their parents have taught them a lot of knowledge, but children still need to grow up in an environment of their peers to help their psychological development. Schools are not just about teaching knowledge. , and teach..." After Balabala had done a lot, he and Xiao Ke said: "So we still don't recommend children to skip grades too far."

Xiao Ke glanced at me, and I looked back at him, begging as hard as I could, let me study with a group of little kids for a few more years, I will definitely be mentally unhealthy!

Xiao Ke was obviously struggling. I pretended to be disappointed, and lowered my head to stare at the black leather shoes on my feet. This trick worked for him in the past, and obviously still works now. I heard a voice from above: "This kid is very Self-reliant, always precocious, I think I can give it a try.”

The principal sighed, and gave me a different paper. I spent about half an hour answering all the math, Chinese, and English questions above, and wrote a 300-word essay, and handed in the paper. None of the questions are wrong.

The principal corrected the papers for a while, looked at me with some surprise, smiled and said to Xiao Ke: "You are really smart, President Xiao teaches well, I think it should be placed in the third class? It is easier for your children to integrate into the group with older brothers and sisters."

Xiao Ke nodded and said, "Yes, please take care of me, principal, in the future."

I breathed a sigh of relief, and when I left, I gave Xiao Ke a big smile without hesitation. Xiao Ke was stunned for a moment, hugged me, and said softly, "Your father will be proud of you."

The next day, Xiao Ke personally sent me to the principal's office, and together with the principal, sent me to the head teacher of Class One, Three Years. The head teacher was surnamed Ning, a gentle female teacher with long hair. After the polite words, I sent them away and took me to the class.

Class one of three years was in the morning reading. Teacher Ning took me in, knocked on the desk and said, "Students, please pay attention. We have a new classmate Xiao Wu this semester. He is relatively young. I hope all students will care about him , study hard and make progress together!"

I bowed and said, "Hi everyone, I'm Xiao Wu."

The classroom below applauded, and Teacher Ning called out with a smile: "Zhang Lingyuan."

Hey, I was a little surprised. Seeing Zhang Lingyuan standing up and looking at me smiling, Teacher Ning said with a smile: "This is the monitor of our three-year class. Zhang Lingyuan, please help the new students. If there is anything Xiao Wu doesn't understand, just ask." Monitor."

I nodded, and Zhang Lingyuan said loudly, "Good teacher!"

There was a sneer from the side, I looked over, and it turned out that Zhang Lingyuan's deskmate was Xiao Weilin, with curly hair and wearing a school skirt, she was still a cute doll, but her face was full of sneers, it seemed that she still remembered what happened last time , or something the adults instilled in her.

Teacher Ning smiled as if she didn't hear it, touched my head, and led me to an empty seat: "The class is odd now, so you sit alone first, and a classmate will transfer to you in two days. Let's be good friends together."

I said oh, Teacher Ning patted my head, asked the students to continue their morning reading, and then left.

The class ended not long after the morning reading, and Zhang Lingyuan rushed to me excitedly and said, "Xiao Wu, it's great that you came to our class! Aren't you two years younger than me? Why are you in the third grade? You are so smart!"

I:"……"

Zhang Lingyuan was still excited: "The shells you gave me last time, I will keep them in the house...Actually, can I give you the shells I picked up tomorrow too?"

I am a little funny, children always think that the things they like are the most precious, and it is a very generous act to give away their favorite things. Introducing the classmates in the class beside me, I have some headaches, to be honest, I just want to dawdle, live day by day, I don't know what the future will be like... From this body, nails and hair will grow Looking at it, it seems that it is still growing. Do I really have to go to primary school again?Do you want to find a chance to go back to Colombia and visit that temple again... Will it be rebuilt after the flood?Or find similar gods, they should all be the same.

I listened to Zhang Lingyuan's words for a while, but accidentally saw his shoelaces were loose. Children are most likely to step on the shoelaces and wrestle. I bent down to fasten it for Zhang Lingyuan. Zhang Lingyuan was startled. His face was flushed red: "Thank you...I will do it myself..."

I smiled, I was used to taking care of Xiao Wu in the past, Zhang Lingyuan is just a child, I can see that he is very enthusiastic and trying to take care of me, but in fact he is still childish.

The class bell rang, and Zhang Lingyuan returned to his seat reluctantly. From a distance, Xiao Weilin and other girls could be heard muttering: "It's adopted, the child of my uncle's friend, not our Xiao family."

In the evening, the driver picked me up. Xiao Ke was too busy. He didn’t come back after dinner, but he served the noodles and said he was making some shepherd’s purse buns for breakfast. Are you used to it? Can you understand what the teacher teaches? Can you see the blackboard clearly from your seat, has Zhang Lingyuan taken care of you?"

While I was answering him, I played hands aside and asked tentatively, "When will we go to Columbia?"

Xiao Ke paused his hands, looked up at me, his eyes were dark: "Do you miss Dad?"

Afraid of touching his heart, I shook my head and thought about it for a while and said nonsense: "Dad took me to a small mountain to worship a god, and Dad said that the wish was very spiritual."

Xiao Ke lowered his head and continued to knead the dough. The sleeves of his silver-gray shirt were rolled up, revealing the beautiful muscle lines of his arms. As I watched, I thought about what he should say if he asked me what I wanted to make, but Xiao Ke suddenly said: "Wait I'll take you to have a look during the holidays."

I was overjoyed that I didn't get to the bottom of it. Xiao Ke looked up at me, then lowered his head: "Xiao Wu, you are too sensible, don't force yourself to pretend to be happy, just tell me if you miss Dad... I miss him too .”

... I really didn't force a smile on my face.

But Xiao Ke came to sleep with me this night, and hugged me to sleep, well, let's take it as a benefit.
